11 A particle travels in a straight line so that t seconds after passing a fixed point O with a
velocity of 1 m/s, its acceleration a m/s2 is given by a = e1/2t for 0 t 6. After
reaching a maximum speed at t = 6, it then moves with a constant retardation of 2.5 m/s2
and comes to rest after T seconds.
(a) Find the speed when the acceleration is 3 m/s2.

The diagram shows a container consisting of a square open bottom with rectangular sides,
each 10L cm by h cm, and an inverted regular pyramid. The perpendicular height of the
pyramid is 12L cm.
(a) Find an expression, in terms of L, for the area of a triangular face of the pyramid. [2]
The container is made of sheet metal whose area is 1200 cm2.
(b) Show that the volume V cm3 of the container is given by V = 3000L 250L3.

[5]

(c) Given that L can vary, find the value of L for which V has a stationary value. Find this
value of V and determine whether it is a maximum or a minimum.
